Meh. One 6 is gone and a ton of your straight outs are dead too. Fold this on 3rd.
5th is a fold too imo.

You're probably right about third. I only limped because I figured I'd get queen-high to pay me off pretty good if I made open sevens on fourth. What do you put my opponents on that would make fifth a fold?

[kschellenger]

I'd fold 3rd. At 15/30 with antes of 2, you don't need to play a hand like this. And, you really don't ned to continue on 5th, 6th or 7th.

[Hamlet]

I don't have a major problem with hand. I would probably fold 5th. I would expect seat 5 to have you beat much of the time.

I don't think 3rd is all that bad (unless the Ace raises). Your opponents' hands appear to be very dead. Folding may be slightly better, but I can't think that calling is terrible.

Once you call 5th, I think paying off the bad player with the extremely dead hand is required (assuming seat 5 folds).

Well it’s close on both 3rd and 5th, but I see no reason to get involved with this hand. On 5th, I just think the chance that one of them has you beat is to high to risk 3 more big bets. It’s closer on 5th than on 3rd.
